Then use regular movement +keys like the arrows, page up/down, and home/end to extend the selection in one +direction. Pressing `^]` swaps the current caret position with the original mark +position so you can extend the selection in the opposite direction. Any time you +type text, delete text, or run a command that does either, the mark is removed +and ordinary navigation is restored. You can also press `^^` again to stop +selecting text. + +Marks are only supported in ncurses. + ### Transforms #### Enclose Entities |
